If there is a compiler for the processor, you can run Linux. Its just a matter of someone sorting out the drivers for the view's hardware. The problem with devices with a small following is that even if someone does manage to port over a distribution there will be very few apps for the device. You will have to compile all your apps from source code. Tracking down dependancies and compiling is a real drag. Doing it for a few apps is fine but having to do it for everything sucks. Welcome to Linux circa 95. All those awesome dpks and rpms that are so easy to install are all precompiled and configured by thousands of users.

1. Anyone else having a squeaky sound when the camera is running? You can only hear it when it's quiet around.

2. Longest shutter speed available?

3. Is there a way to change the names of the photos to something understandable? My last one I think was called 20120105_132545 and those last 6 numbers doesn't have anything to do with the previous photo.

1. If you are on Samsung based ROM, yes, I hear it when I autofocus the camera.

Kindly... can anyone help me using "Unlock Root" ?

After uninstalling the HTC software, (leaving the drivers), disabling Fastboot and put Desire S in debugging, I launched "Unlock Root". After more attempt, the procedure was successful:

Ready

Starting adb server

get online devices (much more rapidly passes to the next step)

Chose the Connected Device: (recognized HTC Desire S 2.3.5)

get devices online

waiting for debug mode

try to get root shell permission May Take Several Minutes

root Succeed!

Unfortunately Desire S is alwais *** LOCKED *** S-ON

I repeated the procedure many times, but the result always the same.

I forgot / mistaken something?

My phone:

SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
You are confusing rooting a phone with gaining S-OFF. To date there has not been a solution developed that will S-OFF HBOOT 2.00.0002. You can change the "LOCKED" status to "UNLOCKED" by using the procedure at HTCDEV.com and this will allow you to flash a custom recovery and then install custom ROMs.
[HTC Desire S] shadi22:
only way to get Permanent Root is to make your device S-OFF....what do you use to root your device?"unlockroot"?
[HTC Desire S] kRel:
Thanks

No! i'm not confusing rooting with S-OFF ! I know S-OFF HBOOT 2.00.0002 solution but i desire only S-OFF. Also I do not want downgrade HBOOT 2.00.0002 to 0.98 !

I want only (for root-applications) S-OFF, and Unlock Root don't work in my case.

Using procedure at HTCDEV.com invalidate the warranty ! You know ?

[HTC Desire S] shadi22:
i repeat the only way to get PERM ROOT IS to get it to S-OFF or to UNLOCK BOOTLOADER VIA HTC DEV.. If Unlock Root works for you then its just SHELL ROOT!.. the root disappears when you restart the device.

And the ONLY way to get S OFF is to DOWNGRADE and use Revolutionary. (which you can do anything you want)

you can unlock bootloader also with HTC dev.(which only let you root, flash roms and kernels)

YOU CANT DO ANYTHING(root,etc) WITH A LOCK BOOTLOADER, same with a S-ON.. Read the forums...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1146601

[HTC Desire S] shadi22:
Dude,, youve unlock using htc dev. that means you can get PERM ROOT.. Unlocking with HTC DEV mean you can flash roms/ root but not as equal as S-OFF. As you can see. it still S-ON because there are still security parameters in the device which are still ON in order to protect the system. S-OFF can only be done using Revolutionary and by that you can do anything with the system.. "UNLOCK BOOTLOADER= FALSE S-OFF"

Hi,

I bought my Neo V 8 days ago and face a problem in the last 5 days.

I had 3 crashes and i dont want a Phone which crashes without any Warnings.

1st Crash: I pressed the Unlock button and swiped the Lockscreen -> Crash

2nd Crash: I deactivated WiFi -> Crash

3rd Crash: I Played Sentinel 3 and after i was finished. I pressed the Standby Button and somehow after 10min i looked at my Phone, it was activated and it wanted me to type in the PIN.

The Alarm is really important to me and if the Phone Crashes in night and it wont wake me up -> job lost? :D

i repaired the Software and i dont know what it will do.

Did someone face the same Problem?

Phone is Unlocked and rooted,OC to 1,4Ghz

Should i return the Phone or wait for ICS update. I hope its only a Softwarebug. I will try only root. No Kernel. lets see What happens.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mj3131:
I recently switched from the standard battery to the extended battery. I'm running an unrooted, unlocked stock phone. I have drained it to 0 and charged it to 100 (with the device off) several times.

However, each time I drain it to 0 over the course of a day, I notice times where the battery life actually increases from minute to minute. In particular, if I use the phone for awhile, and then stop using it for awhile, when I resume, the battery life is slightly above where it was before I stopped using it.

The increase is proportional to how long I wait. I have seen up to a 5 percent increase after a single break (maybe 15 percent adding up all the breaks over a single drain).

Does this mean that I am not getting the full potential from my battery, or that it has to be calibrated? If so, is there anything I can do short of rooting the phone? I'm getting about 3 hours of browsing time a day (that alone, combined with time not using the phone, drains it from 100 to 0).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Clivectmob:
This is normal behaviour, i've seen it on the stock battery. It's just the battery "recovering" after a large current draw. The system reports the battery level from actual voltage of the battery. With li-ion or li-po batteries, the voltage decrease is fairly linear in respect to it's charge level so it's a good indicator of battery status. However, if you take this to extreme levels for the sake of explaination, if you were to short the battery out (high current) the terminal voltage would collapse to virtually zero, then if you removed the short the battery terminal voltage would slowly increase to its (now moderately reduced) charge level. What you are seeing is this effect at a lesser level.

.......

Microsoft To Acquire Nokia's Smartphone Division? posted by Thom Holwerda on Thu 5th Jan 2012 11:25 UTC This rumour is not new, nor is it particularly earth-shattering. However, with Windows Phone 7 failing to make a dent in the market place, and Nokia's Lumia 800 not making huge waves either, the rumour's been taken out of the shed again: Microsoft is supposedly acquiring Nokia's smartphone division later this year. Stephen Elop will resign from Nokia shortly afterwards.

This time around, the rumour's being rekindled by Eldar Murtazin, the Russian editor-in-chief of Mobile-Review.com. He has a pretty good track record regarding Nokia, and has often had very, very early access to device prototypes and other information. However, as always, a firm pile of salt should be readily available at all times when reading this.

"Steve Balmer, Andy Lees and Stephen Elop, Kai Ostamo will meet in Las Vegas to finalize agreement about Nokia smartphone unit," he tweeted. The deal is apparently so that Microsoft also gets a few manufacturing plants, and, of course, an extensive patent portfolio. The Nokia name is set to disappear from the Microsoft smartphones that would follow from this acquisition.

It would leave Nokia with its feature phone business, networking equipment, and an assortment of other activities. While many think this would mean the end of Nokia, I highly doubt it will be - the company is 140 years old, has survived multiple crises and product transitions (they started out as a paper company, after all). Nokia will survive, even without smartphones, but that doesn't make it any less tragic.

This deal certainly wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. It's becoming ever more clear that all those naysayers were right, back when the Microsoft-Nokia deal was announced. Stephen Elop is a mole, with only one goal: to drive Nokia into the ground, so that Microsoft can swoop in and acquire the interesting parts for a relatively low price. The N9 demonstrated that Nokia did have an option besides the failing Windows Phone 7, and that the deal with Microsoft wasn't a necessity at all.

We'll have to see how it all pans out over the course of 2012, but this doesn't seem like a crazy prediction. Sad.

.......

Patent mongering ?

Company absorbtion ?

Apple-like hardware control ?

Discuss :-)
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
wouldn't be surprising. Symbian still the most used smartphone OS, I just don't understand why the company didn't improve, and update it. They killed the proven Symbian OS ,for a unproven unpopular OS that they have no control over.

[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
The rumor may or may not be true (and it most likely is not), but public denials are not now, nor have they ever been, proof that an acquisition is not imminent. I have worked for numerous companies that have been acquired, and in every case, right up until the day the acquisition was officially announced, the companies that I worked for denied the "rumors". That is just standard business practice to avoid too much market volatility.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
yep the truth is still tied up somewhere... apple loves to flaunt 4 million sales in a weekend, android 500,000+ activations a day... and microsoft, balmer only says that sales were less than expected. not much to go on. :-(

you mentioned the update, her's the text:

Update: Nokia UK has given us the following comment:

“We’ve put these rumours to rest a long time ago. The focus for Nokia is on executing on our partnership around Windows Phone and growing the ecosystem, and each company has the tools they need to do so”

yes, that sounds like the normal corporate-speak for "we don't want insider trading or speculations hurting our stocks" as normal.

still waiting on official numbers, and apparently waiting a little longer for a possible aquisition.

[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
You would say that.

Where again where Symbian sales heading for Nokia? They were bleeding marketshare. The writing was on the wall for Symbian. Argue that Nokia should have gone to Android, but not that they should not have stuck with Symbian.

Symbian was not going anywhere positive. The overhead of making your own software has exponential penalties when you are losing sales. The app catalogue was not progressing. Now instead of slowly dying like RIM, Nokia made a gamble. Microsoft could provide them with some perks that the open source world of Android could not.

Now, just like I see a conflict of interest with Google owning Motorola, I see a problem with Microsoft owning Nokia. But maybe they can spin it like Google did -

"We did this to protect the ecosystem. Motorola will operate separately. Don't be worried."
[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
nokia showed an overall growth w/ symbian last year

isn't that extremely positive for a sinking ship

And it is still number one in terms of international handset maker even if samsung is closing in really fast

technically speaking, winphone is a improvement of WM. Unless you're not thinking logically.

[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
I did not selectively read. Because improving it oh so easy. The OS was flat not not attractive. Symbian Anna and Belle are improvements but its nowhere near Android.

Your product is crap. Just improve it.

Last numbers I saw Symbian was still the #1 OS in certain markets. That because Nokia puts Symbian on near everything. Have you owned any Symbian phones? I have. Remember Nokia's share used to be 40%. Last number I saw was in the 20s. Why? Smartphone explosion.

Symbian was sinking and taking Nokia with them. Fact.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
So you ditch it, and still sink? Meego was a great alternative, all I'm saying is don't foolishly put all your eggs in one basket.

Symbian, Meego, and Winphone couldve helped Nokia.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
What about the expenses and overheads of the company? What about the business aspect of that decision? Nokia's problem was they had too many OSes.

Symbian S40, S60 5th edition, Symbian UIQ, S^3, Meego, Maemo. And a partridge in a pear tree.

But in a btw, since 'killing off" Symbian, they have released updates and new phones using Symbian. Maybe there is a place for Symbian like there is a place for Bada and Brew.

Vet, you obvious do not like Windows Phone. At all. But Symbian was a dead end. And Meego? Cmon. They are not getting to 50,000 apps in under a year with Meego. The only valid argument I can understand is Nokia should have ditched Symbian for Android.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Samsung has BADA, WinPhone, Android and I think they still make BREW phones or whatever, Feature and Dumbphones, and used to make Symbian phones as well. They also made Windows Mobile devices.

The number of OSes wasn't Nokia's issue. They were just terribly managed and didn't make good decisions. The latter Symbian updates display that they had and have the capability to make Symbian look good, which is all it really needed (that and better hardware specs, it was lacking just like BB smartphones in that area)...

RIM and Palm and exhibit A that the number of device types you produce/support isn't always the reason why you fail in this market. I don't necessarily think that was the case with Nokia.

Being utterly unable to break into the US market after the smartphone revolution was their biggest issue. Yes, they are good in emerging markets, but you often cannot sell high end smartphones (especially not at the prices they were asking) in those markets like in huge volume...

Those high end smartphones are the devices with the highest profit margins.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
At any given time Samsung is not using all those OSes. WinMo was replaced. As far as I know S40, S60 5th, S^3, Maemo, and Meego are all incompatible OSes that they had around at the same time. I am not saying having too many OSes is the primary reason, but their effort and focus are diluted working on all these projects.

But my argument is Symbian was going nowhere. So they jumped shipped.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gremmmy:
You want to see numbers?? Here they are (they are in dutch and in english)

KPN

Vodafone

Finally after a year I hear people around me asking me "hey is that the OS from Nokia?", when they see my omnia 7. So my opinion is, Nokia and Microsoft doing just fine. Next month there will the release of the Lumia 900 and Nokia is going to use 100 million dollars to promote it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
I recall seeing an article about the whole thing. The Nokia Lumia 800 was the best selling for a few months in certain regions, while not doing so well in others.

Gremmmy, unfortunately in here its never so simple. People have dispositions and will gravitate towards the information that supports that disposition.

I bought into Windows Phone and hate it, so I feed into reports that say it is not doing well.

OR

I bought into Windows Phone and I love it, so I feed into reports that say it is doing well.

Is Windows Phone doing well? No, frankly it is not. Is Nokia stupid for jumping on board? Only time will tell. I will be the first to put my hand up if Windows Phone and Nokia crash and burn. I wonder if the converse happens ....
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Nicksi, Nokia 710 or HTC Radar? Which one would you buy, as they're both the same price over here?

Hypothetical question.
